42 - Just as it was beginning to look good for Lixnaw – they led by six following Conway’s point – Kilmoyley showed how quickly a game of hurling can turn when Jordan Brick sent a beautiful long pass down the centre of the Lixnaw defence to the waiting Maurice O’Connor, who made absolutely no mistake with his finish past Stackpoole
44 - Conway points a free from about the halfway line into the breeze with seeming consummate ease
45 - Kilmoyley begin to enjoy their best spell of the half when Kieran Regan points from wide on the left / Mere moments later the full-forward is back on the scoreboard with another beautifully struck point

60 (+2) - Kilmoyley have a chance for a goal after a period of pressure, but Joe McElligott’s effort is just wide
60 (+4) - Jonathan Silles replaces an injured Darragh Shanahan
60 (+5) - Kilmoyley’s Seánie Murnane drops a long distance free into the dangerzone, a move born of necessity and desperation that pays dividends when Daniel Collins is fouled in the area earning a penalty 60 (+6) - Collins steps up to take the penalty, which is saved brilliantly to the left of Martin Stackpoole. The referee blows the full-time whistle much to the chagrin of the Kilmoyley players
Full-time - Lixnaw 1-16 Kilmoyley 2-11
